Verdict

By far the stronger of the two divisions on paper featuring a quartet of last-time-out winners. Pennsylvania Dutch impressed when scoring at Thirsk a week ago and a similar effort would certainly see him on the premises, whilst the lightly-raced Tabaahy is hard to assess after a mere three runs but clearly needs to be taken seriously for the O'Meara and Tudhope team. Gowanbuster has produced all his best form on the all-weather so OUR PLACE IN LOULE is taken to make it four in a row. He was always travelling well when scoring on his reappearance and his last three wins have all come over course and distance. The assessor will surely catch up with him sooner or later but we'll stick with him again despite an 8lb rise for that latest victory. Super Florence has an each-way shout if ready to roll on reappearance.
